Explanation relative to Amendments 4 and 5.
N.B. It will be difficult, it is supposed, to find any
tolerable colour for objecting to Amendments 4 and 5 as
here proposed: the fall of the existence of the system of
inventions is stated in detail in Mr Benthams
abovementioned evidence Examination before the Finance
Committee of 1797-8. See the p.28, p.76 and can be
proved by words of witness the most ample and satisfactory
evidence. By In the words "making preparations" &c, being the
very evidence only words in the Bill at all applicable to the purposes, this item of less, by which an establishment
of unexampled promise was supplied in the could
not, it is apprehended without some force of construction, if at all, be considered as comprized: and it is much to e doubted whether,
under words so narrow, an Arbitrator appointed by the Treasurer
would consider himself as warranted in taking this item of
loss into account.
To Mr Bentham's losses these capital kinds of loss are
included. 1. Loss by for disadvantageous sale of landed property
land of intendence (£ a year) £512 a year: at first part
for the purpose of the private establishment so sacrificed, but
the greater part afterwards of necessity for the purpose of the intended public establishment,
after the and in consequence of the above transference.
2. Loss of the profit, that might have been expected
expected from that public Contract private establishment,
had it not been so sacrificed.
3. Loss of the profit that might have been expected from
the contract with Government, had not Goverment, have their without any reason
part towards the fulfilment was assigned, or declaration of
the any intention so to do, forborne doing their part towards the fulfilment
of it.
